You are a Pokémon Trainer living in the 30th Century. You’ve always been interested in other Eras and wished you could time travel, just to experience the past. But your family wouldn’t allow it because it appears to be way too dangerous. Stories have been told, about people that travelled through time before, never to return. Besides, you don’t even have a Time Traveller license and that’s another obstacle in your way.
One fateful day, however, your father decides to take you to one of his conventions. Despite not really wanting to go, you decide to do it, just because you had nothing better to do.
Much to your surprise, the convention is about time travelling and they even have a Time Machine. Without thinking it twice, you sneak away from everybody and into the Time Machine. You smile excitedly as you sit down, buckle up and begin pressing buttons, imagining what it would be like if it actually worked.
Suddenly, a bright, purple light with an azure hue begins to shine and the whole machine starts shaking. A feeling of joy mixed with panic engulfs you as you hold tight to a lever, waiting.
A few moments later, the light begins to fade and the shaking stops. You sit quietly, listening, but are unable to hear a sound. After building up enough courage, you get out of the Machine to find yourself in a whole different place. You are excited, yet scared so you reach for your backpack, only to realize you left it at home, along with all of your Pokémon.
You realize you can’t just stand there so you decide to get back into the machine and go back home. But the Machine seems to have run out of energy so you’re stuck. After thinking for a while, you decide to hide the Machine the best you can and to explore the newly found land. What will you find in this new world?

Quick question: When you say no nose, do you mean like how Lanturn looks like it doesn't have a nose or quite literally no nose, like Graveler?
EDIT: Another question: Can we use dual type pokemon who has only 1 type on the chart (like paras for the egyptian era one)?

Okay, I've been playing pretty much all night and I have class to go to so I'm going to update this now!

Pokemon Silver

Number of Badges: 4

Spoiler:

*Started a new game, named myself silver
*Went to professor elm and received Chikorita
*Did the whole "Go to see Prof. Oak" skit
*Met my rival halfway and easily kicked his butt
*Got back, named my rival A (Cause I was too lazy to finish his name)
*Was given 5 pokeballs, got my mom to keep some of my money and I was off to go!
*Using said Chikorita, I was able to catch Nicky (Hoothoot), Mike (Rattata), and Geo (Geodude) with only 1 pokeball used for each.
*Put chikorita up and started to grind for some decent levels (level 5 for each of the pokemon).
*Went to Cherrygrove, grabbing the berry along the way, got the map, healed my pokemon and then went up route 30, grinding and grabbing all the items
*Got to Violet City and, after a quick stop at the poke center, went straight to bell tower for some more training.
*Went through Bell Tower, grabbing all the items, and defeated my rival as well as the monk at the top. Walked back through (for levels and because I didn't want to use my items up)
*After another quick stop at the poke center for healing and the egg, I went to violet gym, easily defeated it with my 3 pokemon.
*Went down Route 32, grabbing the berry and miracle seed (not that I needed it), grinded a bit to get my pokemon to level 12, a quick poke center stop, and then off to Union Cave, where I died a few times thanks to onix and geodude before being able to get through.
*Down in Azelea Town, grabbed the white apricorn, and then talked to Kurt to have him to to the Slowpoke Well.
*Down in the Well I was able to easily beat Team Rocket and then back to azelea town to get Kurt to start on the pokeball (after getting the lure ball)
*To the gym, I was able to defeat it quite easily thanks to Nicky's peck, which caused Nicky to evolve.
*Fighting my rival again, I was able to easily defeat his pokemon with mine, mainly thanks to Nicky evolving and hypnosis.
*Through Ilex Forest, I caught a Paras, which I taught cut, to get through (Tried using it for a bit and it kept dying so I boxed it in goldenrod)
*More grinding on Route 34-35, which got Mike to evolve into a raticate and the egg I received to hatch into a Togepi (Togi).
*Went through Goldenrod first for the bike then off to the gym for a almost lose (only winning with Togi using metronome and getting slash)
*Grabbed the squirt bottle, went back through Route 35, catching a male Nidoran (Owen) with the last 2 pokeballs I had, and then defeated sudowoodo.
*More grinding to get Owen to evolve and then off to the Ecruteak gym, where I was defeated many times (I think around 4 times) thanks to my lacking amount of pokemon and almost all normal types
*Went to poke center, got bill to go back to goldenrod, healed and then back to the gym, where I won thanks to Hypnosis.
*Back to Goldenrod for the Eevee (Dex) and then back to Ecruteak to defeat the sisters and partially go through burned tower for a few items. Also went into Route 42 for the Ultra Ball.
*Back to Ilex Forest for the headbutt guy and off to Route 29, where I spent about a few hours doing nothing but headbutting (I taught Mike) trees. I was able to catch an Aipom (Lee) by using my greatball and ultra ball (To give you a way to figure out how long I spent, I was able to get Geo up 1 level to evolve and then Owen up about 4 levels)
*Went to Olivine City's Lighthouse to promise Jasmine help
*Currently walking/grinding and trying to see what pokemon i should use my lure ball (and last pokeball) on.

I'll do a duplicate sign-up, since I got my LeafGreen back from my friend. *"steals" all of his pokemon through palpark*
And as I like planning out my teams before hand, here they are - let me know if something isn't allowed.

Username: RewyGame: EmeraldEra: Renaissance Era

Milotic (whee, hours of fishing! at least now I'll have something to do at school... 95% of my time there I spend playing pokemon)

Lanturn (I see it as cute and it's main Water/ type, please note if it doesn't fit the category )

Gardevoir

Castform (Fairy-group + Normal)

Altaria (as Flying one )

... something I'll see what random I find for this spot (surprises, surprises!)

Probably going to start with a Mudkip just because it's the most adorable water thing at the start and retire him (without evolving) after a second gym or so.

You aren't required to get both of the mandatory Pokémon o.o I left two or more choices here and there so people can pick one they think suits their team.
Oh and I added a new rule in order to prevent the game from ending due to not being able to catch a HM slave & whatnot.

Started the game.Chose treecko as the starter. Beat May. Caught a zigzagoon which will provide me with items.(got ultra ball,revive and full heal so far ) Grinded both of them to lv8. Reached Petalburg City. Helped out Wally. Went through Petalburg Woods, defeating an aqua grunt in the process and obtaining a great ball from a devon employee. Reached Rustboro City and saved.

[Emergency Supplies]You may use the stores in any Era(that doesn't allow the use of PokéMarts) to purchase Pokéballs for HM slave catching purposes and the E4 Store to buy to buy 10 Full Restores and 10 Revives..

Yay :D If this is the case, I would like to keep going with my silver challenge as well (time to use some of that money up XD) I'll probably start playing again after class and then update before bed. Thank you!

Also, do you mind the use of the speed button on the gameboy emulator? I've only used it to get through people talking to me sometimes (like Whitney crying) and wondered if I could speed through some grinding as well (cause grinding takes forever to do)

LOL, sure xD I LOVE the fast forward button. Makes my grinding and pretty much everything a lot faster xD So feel free to use it xD but don't be like me and use it in trainer battles >.> I trolled myself with selfdestruct and earthquake once >.<

*After KagamiChan added that extra rule, I went and bought 1 greatball 3 times to catch a krabby (they refused to be caught D: )
*After getting it I swam to Cianwood to fight chuck, which I was horribly defeated by the first 3 people in the gym (so much for having almost all normal pokemon :\ )
*After grabbing the Secret Potion, I swam around to find battles and to grind for some levels for a bit (made much easier thanks to the fast forward button)
*Back to the gym and lost a few times to chuck (I swear my noctowl has the worst eyesight to miss so many times)
*When I finally won (thanks to hypnosis), I swam back to olivine to give jasmine the potion to use.
*Ignoring her gym for now, I went straight to Mahagany Town to stop the Red Gyrados and team rocket!
*After being the hero for a bit I went to pryce's gym and had a pretty easy time defeating him with Geo's magnitude and Mike's Hyper Fang
*I then went to Blackthorn City to try and defeat the gym but couldn't get in, just to remember that I had to fight jasmine and get team rocket out of goldenrod
*Prioritizing the gym fight first, I quickly went over to Olivine and defeated Jasmine with Geo and Owen
*After that, I quickly went to Goldenrod to take care of Team rocket, gaining the silver wing from the radio guy and then back to blackthorn
*After having two of my pokemon defeated by the first guy in the gym, I quickly went outside and grind for about 1~2 levels
*Went back and defeated all the extra trainers in the gym (and having to leave after every one to go heal )
*On to Clair, who beat me pretty badly a few times (to my annoyance). After grinding for another 1~2 levels, I was able to defeat her with a super fang to her three dragonairs and then hyponesis/take down combo to kingdra
*Quickly going to the Dragon's Den to get the fang, I then went to the poke center to heal and put up items I couldn't use (apricorns, nevermeltice, dragon fang, etc.)
*Back to New Bark to get the master ball from the prof. and then off to Kanto, where I am currently stationed at Route 26, waiting for morning.

Grinded my team to lv 15.Went to gym.Treecko evolved into Grovyle during those gym trainer battles.Took on Roxanne. Won using only Grovyle(not that Zigzagoon would help that much:p). The devon employee on the petalburg woods asked me to help him get his devon goods back..Rescued Peeko Mr.Briney's Wingull.Got devon goods.Delivered devon goods to the employee.Met devon president.Got the cut hm.Taught cut to zigzagoon.Went to some places that require cut.Went through Petalburg Woods.Got in the cottage and talked to mr.briney. He took me to Dewford Town on his boat.I saved for now.
